Publisher's Synopsis
Savannah Lynn Harper was born in her name sake on a day so hot her mama swore she could've fried an egg right on her belly. In addition to the challenge of being the biracial child of a single mother in the 1970s, Savannah soon realizes that she has the same dark gift as her father - the ability to see ghosts. After her mother's death from cancer, she is forced to move to West Virginia to live with her Uncle Walt, an uncle she previously didn't know existed. It is in West Virginia that she meets the adorable and entertaining Bobby, a true redneck with a kind heart, who reminds her that even she shouldn't judge a book by its cover. She also discovers the secret lying behind her Uncle's farm and the truth behind local girl, Laura Jenson's death. Believing Laura was murdered, Savannah and Bobby embark on a journey to solve the mystery of her death, while confronting current biases and prejudices that still exist today.
